Alteration of bile salt metabolism by dietary fibre (bran).

摘要: Feeding dietary fibre in the form of bran induced changes bile salt metabolism five people with intact gall bladders. There was evidence reduced dehydroxylation salts; proportion deoxycholate conjugates and transfer radioactivity from labelled taurocholate to decreased. These findings, which were independent intestinal transit rate, imply that degradation salts by colonic bacteria. This property accords recent theories fibre-depleted diets favour colon. findings may be relevant aetiology large bowel cancer.
